Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne shut down on Instagram

3 years ago

The rocker says his account on the photo-sharing site was deleted, but he's already started a new one.

Coyne didn't say exactly why Instagram shut him down in the first place, but many believe it had something to do with his tendency to post pictures featuring nudity and other "Not Safe for Work" material.

All of Coyne's 12-hundred-plus posts to his original account have been removed, which didn't go over well with his fans. Many of those fans - including Moby - are directing others to the Flaming Lips fan site TheFutureHeart.com where they can sign a petition demanding Instagram bring all of the pics back.
